1ſhall be the Time of the whole A F, and E C the Time of A I: And be­
cauſe in the Equicrural Triangle A E D the Side A E is equal to the
Side E D, E D ſhall be the Time along A F, and E C is the Time along
A I: Therefore C D, that is A B ſhall be the Time along A F ex qui­
ete in A; which is the ſame as if we ſaid, that A B is the Time along
A G out of G, or out of H: Which was to be done.
PROBL. XIII. PROP. XXXIV.
An inclined Plane and Perpendicular whoſe ſub­
lime term is the ſame being given, to find a
more ſublime point in the Perpendicular pro­
longed out of which a Moveable falling, and
being turned along the inclined Plane, may
paſſe them both in the ſame Time, as it doth
the ſole inclined Plane ex quiete in its ſuperi­
our Term.
Let the inclined Plane and Perpendicular be A B and A C, whoſe
Term A is the ſame.
It is required in the Perpendicular prolonged
from A to find a ſublime point, out of which the Moveable deſcen­
ding, and being turned along the Plane A B, may paſſe the aſſigned part
of the Perpendicular and the Plane A B in the ſame Time, as it would the
ſole Plane A B out of Reſt in A.

Let the Ho­
rizontal Line
be B C, and
let A N be
cut equal to
A C; and as
A B is to B N,
ſo let A L be
to L C: and
unto A L let
A I be equal,
and unto A C
and B I let C
E be a third
proportional,
marked in the
Perpendicular A C produced.
I ſay, that C E is the Space acquired;
ſo that the Perpendicular being extended above A, and the part A X
equal to C E being taken, a Moveable out of X will paſſe both the
